<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Dennis. <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">You raise an issue that has, IMHO, profound implications.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">From my point of view, the ultimate beneficiary of UA is the end user, who will be allowed to access the Internet using his/her own language and script, and the local content providers, who can ensure that local people can access what they
produce.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, I am under the impression that the voice of the users is not particularly significant in the UASG - maybe this is also by design, as end users can seldom be excited by technical discussions and there are significant technical issues
that UASG has to address in priority. However, they should be the ones “asking for this”.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">My point is that we need to get end users more involved, so that they can become more active and even more “pushy” for UA. I am personally active in ALAC - although I have no official position there - and have some difficulties in getting
the attention on these issues. I am wondering whether we can use the upcoming Kobe meeting to have more involvement from this relevant stakeholder group.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">One question that I get asked sometimes is “who is asking for this?” The FAQ lightly touches on “the expansion of the internet”, but perhaps this question should be incorporated in a next iteration. I believe this dove tails with Mark’s
valid point about languages of the web (and evolution throughout the years).<o:p></o:p></p>
